Silk Road of Surveillance

Silk Road of Surveillance

The Silk Road of Surveillance report exposes the significant collaboration between the illegal Myanmar military junta and Geedge Networks in implementing a commercial version of China’s “Great Firewall”, giving the junta unprecedented capabilities to track down, arrest, torture and kill civilians.

Geedge Networks is a Chinese company with links to the Chinese government.

The report also exposes 13 telecommunications companies in Myanmar that are integral to the continued functioning of Geedge’s sophisticated surveillance and censorship technology on behalf of the junta.
